They're meant to be a lot less formal than other threads on the forum, so to moderate them the same way would be silly. However, we do ask posters to maintain a certain level of decorum in these threads, and we plan on moderating the Gameday threads a little more actively this season. In particular, we ask that posters refrain from being overly repetitive with their posts (if you've made your point, let it go), refrain from monopolizing the discussion (if you are making more than a couple posts in a row, you probably need to slow down a little bit), and of course, follow the Ground Rules ( link). The point is to make these threads worth participating in and fun for all posters, from our long-time fixtures to people just signing up today. -The Management

Vs LHP, Sean Rodriguez plays and Hoskins is likely the DH. Realmuto may be at 1B.
Nola, Smyly: lousy hitters. So Philly is not losing some advantage.

Sox down multiple runs in the first inning. We’ve seen this movie before (seems like a dozen times at least).

I like Johnson, and I love how he has persevered— but he is not good.

Nola got all hitters out on a ball out the zone. Johnson throws a 2 strike center cut loins.

Listening to that kid speak was heartbreaking. No kid should need that kind of perspective that early in life.

I like Johnson, and I love how he has persevered— but he is not good. Yeah, I'm really happy that the guy got to be a significant part of the 2018 team, but at 28 and with pretty minimal stuff, that season could easily be the high water mark for him.

These games are so frustrating... the bullpen works so hard to keep it close, but these are what have devoured the staff this season.
